I'm a few days into my study abroad journey in Paris. It's been interesting to say the least! The first thing I learned was that you have to watch what you plug in here, or else you may blow a circuit and have no phone or internet to get a hold of someone to help (not that I did that, of course.) I spent the next couple of days sight seeing, as well as eating everything in sight. My apartment is steps away from the Louvre, the Seine, the Pyramids, and most importantly, the Christian Louboutin store where I will spend much time window shopping.
Going out at night is a bit intimidating when you're not familiar with the area. People can tell you're American from a mile away, maybe by how I stare at everything around me everywhere I go. However, everyone has been so nice, and even eager to practice their English with me. Yesterday my friends and I found our way to an Irish pub that was playing the Eagles-Cardinals game! So now we can rest assured that we won't miss out on the Super Bowl, even though our Eagles aren't in it :(
Sorry this blog has no focus, but it's as scattered as my mind has been since I've gotten here!
